Data Center Power Market Segmentation Analysis


By Component Analysis


Solution Segment Dominated due to Increase in Demand for Data Center Equipment and Physical Infrastructure


By component, the market is bifurcated into solutions and services. The solutions are further classified as power distribution units, UPS, generators, networking infrastructure, and others. The other solution types include switches and others.


In 2023, the solution segment dominated the market along with power distribution units. In recent years, the sales of data center cooling, power, and other physical infrastructure have grown substantially, majorly due to service providers expanding their worldwide data centers to cater to high demand, supply chain enhancements, and companies modernizing their on-premises data center infrastructure. Companies, such as Huawei, Legrand, and Eaton Corporation have reported massive demand from end-users. This increasing demand also indicates that in the coming future, the demand for uninterrupted power supply will also grow respectively. For instance,



  • In July 2023, Fuji Electric introduced a new product with a single-unit capacity of 2,400 kVA by expanding the 7500WX Series of highly efficient uninterruptible power supply systems.

  • In May 2022, Chennai’s data center's growing demand led to a rise in demand for Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems.


Both recent developments are considered to cater to the increasing demand for data center capacities.


In the coming years, the services segment is expected to cover the most substantial portion of the global data center power market share. The growing number of service providers, customer-specific services, and an effective service delivery model are expected to drive the service segment during the forecast period.


By Data Center Size Analysis


Small and Medium-Sized Data Centers Lead with Faster Data Center Construction and Efficient Customer Service


By data center size, the market is divided into small and medium-sized data centers and large data centers. In 2023, small and medium-sized data centers lead the market owing to two primary factors: faster data center construction and efficient customer service.


Businesses are prioritizing data center capacity to promptly serve end-users, particularly for latency-sensitive digital services requiring distributed computing for enhanced analytics. This demand drives the need for edge data center capacity (as close to the end-user). Moreover, large data centers require large volumes of resources, appropriate site selection, construction differences, supply chain challenges, and many other factors that affect and delay the construction of large data centers. Thus, the data center industry is witnessing a massive demand for small-size data centers, prompting an accelerated need for power solutions.


In the coming years, the adoption of power solutions for large data centers is expected to grow at the highest CAGR. This rise is due to several recently announced projects for the construction of large data centers that are expected to be completed in the coming years.
